You may know one: Larry "Torch" Torchia of Torch's Referee & Umpire Supplies in Merritt Island, and Jim Thompson in Vero Beach.

Essentially, FHSAA is for sanctioned events and travel to and from said events. I suspect had the official who was attacked been hurt or hospitalized that the insurance would have covered it. It is beat into our heads to NOT wear FHSAA patches to events not sanctioned by them. I do plenty of AAU, YBOA, USSSA & other non-FHSAA basketball down here and usually wear b/w shirts with no patches. I am about 1:45 below Orlando, so I do not know those folks, but know of Torch's.
